When using the automarkup extension with:
	make pdfdocs

without passing an specific book, the code will raise an exception:

	  File "/devel/v4l/docs/Documentation/sphinx/automarkup.py", line 86, in auto_markup
	    node.parent.replace(node, markup_funcs(name, app, node))
	  File "/devel/v4l/docs/Documentation/sphinx/automarkup.py", line 59, in markup_funcs
	    'function', target, pxref, lit_text)
	  File "/devel/v4l/docs/sphinx_2.0/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sphinx/domains/c.py", line 308, in resolve_xref
	    contnode, target)
	  File "/devel/v4l/docs/sphinx_2.0/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sphinx/util/nodes.py", line 450, in make_refnode
	    '#' + targetid)
	  File "/devel/v4l/docs/sphinx_2.0/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sphinx/builders/latex/__init__.py", line 159, in get_relative_uri
	    return self.get_target_uri(to, typ)
	  File "/devel/v4l/docs/sphinx_2.0/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sphinx/builders/latex/__init__.py", line 152, in get_target_uri
	    raise NoUri
	sphinx.environment.NoUri

This happens because not all references will belong to a single
PDF/LaTeX document.

Better to just ignore those than breaking Sphinx build.

The handling of dashes in particular results in confusing
documentation in a number of instances, since "--" becomes an
en-dash. This disables SmartyPants wholesale, losing smart quotes
along with smart dashes.

With Sphinx 1.6 we could fine-tune the conversion, using the new
smartquotes and smartquotes_action settings.

The UP.rst file calls for locks acquired within RCU callback functions
to use _irq variants (spin_lock_irqsave() or similar), which does work,
but can be overkill.  This commit therefore instead calls for _bh variants
(spin_lock_bh() or similar), while noting that _irq does work.
